New Air Force smoker

Hey ya'll. I'm stationed at Keesler AFB in Mississippi and got a propane smoker recently. I love to grill, but have no experience with a smoker. I hope to get it fired up later this week. This looks like a great site. I've got a tri-tip roast in the fridge that I was going to grill, but I might smoke it instead. Any tips/advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Welcome to the site Goose.........Glad to have you here........Thanks for the good work you guys are doing for all of us........You might want to take the 5 day ecourse, its free and lots of great info there too......

Welcome to SMF Sir! Tri-tip's a good smoking cut. Can't get 'em here...grrr.. Anyway, do a search for tri-tip. Also sign up for the 5 day ecourse. Great info there. Grilling and smoking are ALOT different, as you will soon know pat! Enjoy!

Welcome aboard Goose!
Glad to have you here. I agree with the other post, Tri tip is a great cut of meat to smoke. Let us know how yours turns out. And don't forget the pictures. And by the way, I also agree with the suggestion to take the five day smoking e course. Again, welcome aboard.
